Agree with everything you just said, except, please make it two engineers. Speaking as a prototypical eng manager who typically inherits these types of projects when "that one engineer" leaves the company, I strongly believe that any job worth doing is worth doing by more than one person. (Plus, a good peer, just to bounce ideas off of and do informed code reviews with, is worth their weight in stars.)
PS: I thought @jack was going to open the third-party ecosystem back up again. That also has the potential to help address this problem. Did that not happen?

I asked Jack about the third-party ecosystem on his producthunt Q&A, he said Fabric is a strong offering and they're building more to repair relationship.[1] I don't know if them building developer tools is same as repairing relationships though.

- BillinghamJ 11y agoHmm, I don't know about anyone else, but personally I can't stand Fabric! It gets in my way far more than it helps, with the weird utility app they force you to keep installed, and a single dashboard which does lots of things, but none of them really well.
